Until the mid-1500s, maps and globes lacked accurate representations of the Americas, as they had not yet been discovered by Europeans. Additionally, many parts of the world, such as Australia and significant portions of Africa and Asia, were poorly mapped or entirely missing. Furthermore, the knowledge of latitude and longitude systems was not fully developed, which affected the precision of geographic representations.

Why are maps and globes alike?
because globe is also a map.
How are maps and globes similar how are they different?
Maps and globes both do the same thing - show a representation of the earth in different scales. the difference between the two is - a globe is a 3D version of a map !

How are maps and globes similar and how are they different?
Maps and globes are both tools used to represent the Earth's surface. Maps are two-dimensional representations while globes are three-dimensional. Maps can provide more detailed information and are easier to carry around, while globes offer a more accurate depiction of the Earth's shape and are better for understanding distances and spatial relationships.
What are the major tools used by geographers?
Maps and Globes
Why are maps more informative than globes?
Maps are typically more informative than globes because they can display larger areas in greater detail. Maps can show specific information such as roads, cities, and topographical features more clearly than globes, which can sometimes distort the shapes of land masses and distances. Additionally, maps can be updated more easily with current information than globes can.
